Why is everyone forgetting Their essential "Wayne's World"? Bohemian Rhapsody ;) j/k

course you know that music that is faster then about 120 beats per minute makes you 80% more likely to run a red light... But then again...who cares

bleeb, nice to see some variation from the hard rock/rap. You people need to expand your horizons. Of couse I love rock and most of the songs listed I have and listen to.

What I like to listen to in the car...Wynton Marsalis arguably the best jazz musicians currently alive or if dead is your thing Ellington, Coltrain?

And when I?m in a special mood, Dvorak or Stravinsky (oh Fire Bird Suite, and Night on Bear Mountain)

And in the times I want something Choral--- The Gabriel Faure Requiem

Or more in keeping with this thread, Creed.

Seriously..

Song 2 by Blur if I'm in a "driving" mood and Everything in its right place by Radiohead for those mellower times.

WTF?!? I didn't know they remade that but I just looked at CDNow.com and there it was!
I previously only knew Eagles version. Jackson Browne is cool! ;)

Actually, it is a little known fact but Jackson Browne actually helped write the song in the first place. That is correct, he has rights to the song because it is partially his, partially The Eagles.

I happen to like Jackson Browne's version better (though I like The Eagles version as well).

That's actually my second favorite...GREAT (and seemingly unknown) PJ song!

agreed cant wait for the new album/tour

i'm gonna have to go with the whole vs. album. it's too bad their new stuff doesn't compare to the first two cd's.

after that:
the stone temple pilots - interstate love song
soundgarden - the day I tried to live
RATM - people of the sun / know your enemy
